I didn't want to have to post here, but I have been attempting to work through illness here for the past few days, which is not exactly working. Also, I have lost at least three drafts—I still have to check over the rest of the possibilities—for various important threads. Please allow me a small amount of leeway when it comes to meeting DQ intervals.
Test weeks are back!
I think I have 3 this week? Maybe 4. So yeah, expect me to be kind of dead until... wednesday night, probably.
EDIT: Another test came up. Dead until Friday.
EDIT: God loves my and my classmates and doesn't want us to have two very tough exams the same day. I'll still have one on Friday, though, and the other one is on Monday, so while I won't be dead, expect me to have reduced activity until Friday (got a ton of free time on weekends, so I can probably come and do stuff and srill study). As in, I'll try to post, but don't expect me to do so. Or at least not in time.
Yet another EDIT: nvm, my teacher changed her mind and is going to apply her test on friday, too. So I'm dead (both in ASB and irl).

Gonna be hammered with school and swimming for the next ~2 weeks, I'll be around but expect very limited activity in anything that requires more than eight seconds of thought
i have limited online time for the next few weeks or so
College exams + a small surgery coming soon = Low activity for a while.

If i am over DQ for reffing, you are free to DQ and get a new one. For my battles, particulary Tournament, i ask for patience.
I'll be back as soon as possible, but until then, please accept my sincerest appologies.

I learned of this yesterday but forgot to post, so sorry.
One of my jobs is sending me to a trainer's convention this weekend so I can be a full fledged trainer for them. I'll be gone the whole weekend (Friday-Sunday). I'll have my laptop but I'll be busy most of the weekend, so expect things reffed late Sunday night/Monday

Sorry guys, we had terrible weather for the past few days in my state and city, and the torrential rains have led to flooding of the only river in my city.
We had power cut for more than a day and internet has been down since the last time I visited.
I will do what I can here, but requesting you to get a replacement where ever you want to. As I am not sure when the rainstorm would pass or when the flood condition would ease up.
Its a pretty dangerous experience with all the transport systems stopped, ATMs not working, and no network coverage on mobiles. When power and internet was down it was scary as fuck, like everyone was in a state of shock and panic.
Not a good way to die :(

I'm going to take a hiatus.
Yes, this means I forfeit on everything (and resign as Grass GL, wow, short lived).
No, I don't care that you bet on me to win against Ascher.
Well, okay, I'll finish that and the AB because Lad deserves better.
But otherwise, I plan on taking a break from the game itself for some time. ASB has burnt me out (as did another game that I played for a very long time until I suddenly stopped). I need to try new things.
I'll still be on IRC at times, so if you want to chat me up when I'm there, I won't mind. If you want to ask me ASB stuff, I won't mind either. But I won't do your battles.

Retiring from ASB, putting all reffings up for subreffing with subref getting all counters I would've gotten, forfeiting from all matches.
My mother is having Knee Surgery this friday. she won't be able to move around much for the next two weeks, and the surgery is costing a lot. Sooooo I simultaneously have to stay home more to help her out, and work more hours (overtime at all three jobs). I will be updating everything slower, but I will be updating things nontheless.
Also, if you want to donate some money, I have no shame and will gladly accept your pity money

Why am I here?
Going away for the weekend, leaving this afternoon and back Sunday evening. It's only a touch over 48 hours though so please don't DQ me.
hey, guess what! next week is semester finals, so a. earlier bedtimes (i.e. this hour was pretty much the only time I could get on my comp), b. i'm exhausted, and c. as mentioned in a i barely have time to do anything
feel free to get subrefs in anything i'm reffing

I have surgery on Tuesday, the 15th of December. It's under a general anaesthetic, so I will likely be absent on Tuesday and Wednesday, or at a bare minimum, 'literally too tired to care'. This is followed by mother having surgery on the 17th (Thursday), which means that I will probably be not wanting to do much needing focus until Friday/Saturday ^^'
